Not too much crafting has been going on here lately thanks to packing, a very clingy toddler, and a particularly nasty cold I've been fighting. Today I was feeling better enough to drag myself out of bed and cut out a pattern for a shirt that I'm working on, but that's about as far as I've gotten.
This quilt is titled "Heather Ross, Squared" and is one of the very first quilts that I made, once again using solely fabric from Heather Ross' first fabric line "Lightening Bugs and Other Mysteries". I think this might be my favorite fabric line of all time, and I really wanted to show off the amazing prints.
If I remember correctly, this pattern is called "Four Square", and is made up of 8", 4", and 2" squares, separated by 1" sashing. I used up a ton of my HR stash by doing some major fussy cutting for the 2" squares, but I completely love how it turned out. I ended up quilting it in an all over, loop-di-loop pattern - my first time doing free-motion quilting!

So cute! I'm getting ready for a Heather Ross quilt along next month, so this is really inspiring to see! I hope my quilt comes out just as good!
